According to ESPN’s Buster Olney, former Tigers manager could be out of a job after just one season with his new team, the Los Angeles Angels.
Brad Ausmus is in jeopardy of losing his job as manager of the Angels, after his first year. His status is currently under consideration by the team’s leadership, with one source believing its more likely than not the Angels will go in another direction.

The Angels managed to win just 72 games in the 2019 season which gave them a fourth place finish in the AL West.
Now, giving a guy one season seems a bit drastic. However, pro sports are a results-oriented business. Do you think this might have anything to do anything with Joe Maddon being available now that he’s parted ways with the Cubs?
One thing is for sure, Tiger fans will not jump to his defense.
